it would've been a worthy opponent...
I feel sorry for you, but I'm glad I'm not you.

Hold the back page! Hold the front page! Hold every damn page! Something special is happening here. Of course it has been the best series ever played. Well, the best in the last quarter of a century anyhow. Allow a bit of room for journalistic licence. Of course it is not over yet, hardly half way through. Always risky to judge a play with the female interest tied up, the hero languishing in jail and two reels remaining.

At last came the relief of a final wicket taken in a blur of bumper, glove, celebration and despair. And then glory again as the home hero did not join his excited comrades but instead marched across to commiserate with his valiant but defeated foes. At that moment Flintoff demonstrated that he has greatness within.

Cricket would be interesting if they allowed body checking, like in ice hockey
Yanks will be considered civilized the day they can learn to play with proper bats, run straight instead of in a diamond fashion, have stumps between the keeper and the ball, and politely ask "Howzaat?" or better still, just glance back at the umpire.
